Teaching Notes
Purpose of lesson and alignment to standards:
■ This is the fourth of six close read-aloud sessions of O to Class. In this session, students contin- ue reading the section of text they began reading yesterday: “Out of the Rubble “(pages 18–19). Students learn about how this community solves its problem in sending students to school. They also continue listening for important details and practicing taking notes (RI.2.1, RI.2.2, W.2.8, L.2.4).
■ During the close read-aloud, students participate in a Language Dive that guides them through the meaning of a particularly important sentence from O to Class.
■ In this lesson, students again have various opportunities to orally share their thinking with a partner before drawing, writing their notes, and writing their informative paragraphs. As in Lesson 4, they also have a chance to summarize the entire section with a partner (SL.2.1).
■ Students use their notes from the close read-aloud and write the last two parts of their in- formative paragraph: information about the solution and the conclusion (W.2.2).
■ The habit of character collaboration is introduced at the end of Work Time A. This habit is one of four (perseverance, collaboration, initiative, responsibility) that will be de ned and used as part of being an e ective learner. In this lesson, students are asked to re ect on how people and groups used collaboration in the section “Out of the Rubble” from O to Class. Students will revisit the habit of collaboration throughout this unit as they work with their writing partners.
How this lesson builds on previous work:
■ This lesson follows a similar pattern to Lesson 3. Students build o of the reading they did in Session 3 of the close read-aloud of the section “Out of the Rubble,” during which they learned about the problem facing this community. Today, students look for details that help them understand the solution.
■ Students continue to work with their writing partners.
■ Continue to use Goal 1 Conversation Cues to promote productive and equitable conversation.
Down the road:
■ The Unit 2 Assessment takes place across Lessons 6–7. Those lessons follow a similar pattern to Lessons 4–5, so students should feel very comfortable working with a new text.
